Journal Article
Unrecognized myocardial infarction: experience in the Multiple Risk Factor Intervention Trial (MRFIT).
Grimm Rh,Tillinghast S,Daniels K,James D. Neaton,Mascioli S,Richard S. Crow,Pritzker M,Ronald J. Prineas +7 more
TL;DR: The primary purpose of the study was to see if lowering risk factors (diastolic blood pressure, blood cholesterol, and cigarette smoking) would result in a reduced incidence of death from coronary heart disease.
Journal Article

Bertram Pitt,Philip A. Poole-Wilson,Robert Segal,Felipe Martinez,Kenneth Dickstein,A. John Camm,Marvin A. Konstam,Günter A.J. Riegger,George Klinger,James D. Neaton,Divakar Sharma,Balasamy Thiyagarajan +11 more

Jeremiah Stamler,Ronald J. Prineas,James D. Neaton,Richard H. Grimm,Robert H. McDonald,Harold W. Schnaper,James A. Schoenberger,Patricia J. Elmer,Jeffrey A. Cutler +8 more
TL;DR: This trial is comparing the combined effects of diet treatment and 1 of 5 active drug regimens with diet treatment alone, for the long-term management of middle-aged adults with "mild" hypertension, with the ultimate aim to assess effects on morbidity and mortality.
Journal ArticleDOI
Unexpected effects of treating hypertension in men with electrocardiographic abnormalities: a critical analysis.
TL;DR: It is possible that the excess CHD mortality among MRFIT special intervention men with electrocardiographic abnormalities may have been caused by a combination of increased left ventricular mass in the presence of coronary atherosclerosis, and hypokalemia caused by good compliance with diuretic therapy and accentuated by stress-induced increases in circulating catecholamines.
Journal ArticleDOI
